How Does PawPay Work?
PawPay FAQs
How does PawPay work for breeders?
PawPay provides a secure escrow service for pet purchasers to pay breeders. As a breeder, you will agree on the specific pet that will be purchased and the payment amount with the purchaser. The pet purchaser will then deposit the payment into the PawPay account. The funds are held securely until the pet is delivered to its new owner and the purchaser confirms its safe arrival. Once confirmed, the payment is promptly released to you.
Are there any fees for breeders using PawPay?
No, breeders do not incur any fees for using PawPay. The pet purchaser is responsible for paying an additional 10% of the total payment price to cover the PawPay management fee. This fee covers the cost of the escrow service, ensuring a secure transaction without any extra cost to you as a breeder.
How does PawPay protect breeders from fraudulent purchasers?
PawPay ensures that the payment is securely held in an escrow account until the pet has been delivered and the purchaser confirms its safe arrival. This protects breeders from fraudulent purchasers who might otherwise fail to make the payment after receiving the pet. This system offers security and peace of mind for all breeders.
What types of pets can be sold using PawPay?
PawPay is designed primarily for common household pets such as dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens. However, the PawPay platform can be used to purchase any other kind of pet.
How do I receive payment through PawPay?
Your payment details will be requested once the pet purchaser has paid via the PawPay platform. Once the pet purchaser confirms the safe delivery of the agreed-upon pet through the PawPay platform, the funds held in the escrow account will be released to you. This ensures that you receive your payment promptly and securely, protecting your interests as a breeder.
What should I do if the pet purchaser does not confirm delivery?
If the pet purchaser fails to confirm delivery, the funds will remain in the escrow account. It is important to communicate with the purchaser to ensure they complete this step. PawPay's secure system ensures that funds are only released when both parties are satisfied with the transaction. The PawPay platform will communicate this clearly with the pet purchaser prior to the completion of the process.
Does PawPay verify the pet purchasers?
No, PawPay does not verify the home of the pet purchaser or their suitability as a pet owner. As a breeder, it is advisable to conduct your own research and communicate with potential purchasers to ensure they are suitable for the pet. PawPay focuses solely on providing a secure payment platform to protect against financial scams.
How can I get started with PawPay as a breeder?
To get started with PawPay, all that is required is that you request your clients pay for their new pets via the PawPay platform.
What happens if there is a dispute with the pet purchaser?
In the event of a dispute with the pet purchaser, the funds will remain in the PawPay escrow account until the issue is resolved. This protects both parties and encourages a fair resolution. It is important to communicate clearly and work towards a mutually satisfactory outcome to ensure the smooth completion of the transaction.
